ElevateEdAZ is excited to provide a new career exploration tool for students at our partner schools. All students are provided a YouScience assessment to learn more about their natural ability and interests. The assessment is made of 11 brain games with a 60-question interest survey. While students are given a report of their career matches, natural abilities and post-secondary resources, educators are also given an analytics report to help best match their students to pathways and in-demand careers.
Here are the insights included:
CTE/Perkins Pathways- Students are matched to their best fit pathways.
Majors Match- Students are matched with local community and technical college programs.
Top Career- Identifies top careers for your students by aptitude, interest, and overall fit.
Cluster Matching- Students are exposed to industries and other opportunities in the cluster they are most aligned with.
